start adding site to main repo

[Rich-Harris]

Just the homepage for now, about to start on /guide. Copy/tagline etc all open to bikeshedding

[Rich-Harris]

Ok I've deployed this in its current form to http://sapper-staging.surge.sh/, if anyone is interested

[Conduitry]

Visiting http://sapper-staging.surge.sh/migrating directly gives me the page's json. Do we also want this to have its own nav link at the top right of the page?

edit: Same thing with http://sapper-staging.surge.sh/docs - I get json

[Rich-Harris]

what the... that must be some Surge-specific behaviour. Going to http://sapper-staging.surge.sh/migrating/ takes you to the proper page. It won't ultimately be deployed on Surge, it's just the quickest way to throw it up for now.

I wondered about the nav. It feels like clutter for something that relatively few people will need though

"The next small thing in web development" still doesn't gel with me the way "Cybernetically enhanced web apps" does. I have no productive contributions to make in this area though :(

[Rich-Harris]

Deployed to https://sapper.svelte.dev, using Netlify (first time using it, was impressed). Not 100% finished — a couple of broken links, and copy/tagline are still bikesheddable, but I think we're very nearly ready to release 0.26

👍 Netlify is definitely a strong contender for best static-site hosting.

[Conduitry]

Interesting. Someone (presumably Netlify?) is redirecting stuff like https://sapper.svelte.dev/docs to https://sapper.svelte.dev/docs/ - Probably not a problem?

Netlify does this with "Pretty Urls" option: https://www.netlify.com/docs/redirects/#trailing-slash
